Answer:
what how do you even do this
Answer: the number of students that were surveyed is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = total number of students that were surveyed about their favorite colors
1/4 of the students preferred red.
This means that the number of students that preferred red is 1/4 × x = x/4
1/8 of the students preferred blue.
This means that the number of students that preferred blue is 1/8 × x = x/8
The remaining number of students will be the total number of students - the sum of the number of students that preferred red and the number of students that preferred blue. It becomes
x - (x/4 + x/8) = x - 3x/8 = 5x/8
3/5 of the remaining students were for green. This means that the number of students that preferred green is 3/5 × 5x/8 = 3x/8
if 15 students prefer green, then
3x/8 = 15
3x = 120
x = 120/3 = 40 students
Divide the pages read by the portion read:
60/ 3/4 = 60 x 4/3 = 240/3 = 80
The book has 80 pages.
Answer:
250 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Let the total number of students be x
Number of students that plays instrument = 10
Hence
40% of x = 10
40/100*x= 100
0.4x=100
x=100/0.4
x= 250
Hence there are 250 students in total
